A DraYton Street Growl.

Editor MJr',ing Ne,CS: Weare certainly
very fortunate in having the services of
Alderman Thomas, the very active chair
man OF the Street and Lane Committee.
The improved condition of our streets and
parks are SO apparent that we have reason
I'd feel proud Of our beautiful Savannah. 1t
is necessary, however, to draw the imlne-
diate attention of our honorable Board of
Aldermen to the terrible condition of the
Drayton street pavement, the only street
that is used for driving from the most ex-
IRENE north to the south side The pave
ment through its entire length is in most
shameful condition. Let it either be taken
up and properly repaved, or paved with
asphaltum. | am sure the property holders
would favor an asphalt pavement | trust
the Aldermen will take immediate action in
the matter. K.

THE REUNION.
HOW THE BIG GATHERING Is BEING
DOOMED.
important Meeting Of the Committee on Music,
at Headquarters Last Even
ing.

The Reunion committees are meeting
almost daily now, and the big enterprise Is
moving along at a most satisfactory rate.
Last evening the gentlemen of the Commit
tee on Music met at headquarters on Chap
line street and organized by electing Prof.
Hermann Schockey Chairman and F. Roller
Secretary. Mr.. Sheib stated that the Ex-
ecntiye Committee, at its last session, had
approved a requisition from the Music
Committee for 800. The Committee at
once took up the subject ofbrass bands, but
after an informal discussion II was deemed
best not to make any contracts for the
present.
In regard to the vocal music, it was de-
termined at once TO order one hundred
comics of the volume Of war songs in gen.
eral use by G. A. K. Posts. These songs
are for male voices and will be used by the
chorus.
1t was determined to have the rehearsals
for the chorus of pupils of the public
schools at Arion Hall, if it could be OBJ
tanned. These rehearsals will commence
as soon as the use Of the hall can be Sc
cured, and will probably occur twice or
three times a week, each rehearsal occupy
ing about an hour. They will be conduct
ed by Profs. Schockey, Arbenz and Vaas
alternately. The programme OF songs for
the children has not yet been determined
upon, but it will consist Of such well-known
songs as Columbia, the Gem of the
Ocean" Hail Columbia" Marching
Through Georgia" America" &c.
A portion of the programme for the
singing societies has been made up, but it
is a little uncertain when rehearsals will
commence. The numbers so far decided
upon are
krieger Scene. flsher
March and PRAYER. from "Nederlandische
Lleder''
Nacht Lied der Werner
These choruses were given at the Saen-
gerfest at the Alhambra, and are familiar
to the local societies. All the chOruses
will have orchestral Accomplishments.
The question of a soioist was taken up,
and the name Of Miss Dora Hennengcs, Of
Cleveland, was mentioned tavoraby, but
it was the unanimous opinion of the Com
mittee that the great size of the tent would
render the efforts of even the best vocalist
of no avail, without the aid OF large
sounding-board, and even then it was
doubtful If she could he heard by more
than q small portion Of the audience. 1t
was, therefore, decided that solo singing
was an impossibilIty under the circnm'
stances.
The instrumental numbers on the con-
cert programme have not yet received any
attention from the Committee. Ii has
been suggested that when this part OF the
affair comes up, the Committee add two
or three selections for the united military
bands, commencing, for instance, withsome
standard overture, and including further
along a good march, like the one i'll
"Thannhauser."
The Committee will meet again next
Friday evening.
The Executive Committee will hold an
other meeting this evening, TO hear the
report of the corresponding secretary con-
corning the fire works display.

Nicholson Roasts the Umpire.

special Telegram 10 TIE Register.
SANDUsKY, o., July % "A good sized
audience assembled at the ball grounds to-
day and saw Wheeling robbed of a game
by the rotten decisions of Al Bauer, the
umpire. Ia the ninth inning, with two
men out and one man on third, with one
score to tie and two to win, Strothers
was at the bat with two strikes. The
next ball went through the center
of the plate and here is where Bauer got in
his work by calling it ball. The next
ball he struck at and missed, when he
ought to have been out. The next ball he
hit over first and it was foul, as several
gentlemen told me after the game. Bauer
decided it safe. The next man hit
to Crogan who threw home to
cut Strothers off. Westlake caught
it and touched the runner, but Bauer
again declared him safe after running
three feet out of the line, and he has not
touched home plate yet. This is the kind
OF n game we had to play. Stencil had
his finger hurt in the fifth inning and
Westlake took his place The game
abounded in hard hitting and sharp field
ing, Kimber leading in the batting with a
three bagger and home run. We are
playing good ball, but are playing in hard
luck. I. G. NICHOLSON.

4 Novel Picnic.

Agypsy picnic was held ut the residence
of Mr.. Z. b. McLain, near Elm Grove,
yesterday, which proved most unique
and delightful affair The programme
WAS for all the young folks TO he dressed
in regular gypsy costume, and it WAS fol-
lowed out To the letter. A large number
of the guests assembled at the residence
of one of their number at Pleasant Valley,
aud moved from there in body TO the
scene of the frolic. There were gypsy
girls and boys on horseback, gypsy boys
and girls in wagons and as they moved out
the pike in their gay attire, they certainly
presented novel sight. They ran races
ON horseback, and shouted, and had gay
time generally. A number intend
ed going out from the city
but the rain prevented them, and it also
put dampener on the enjOyments of the
picknickers, who however managed to have
a good time. A bounteous supper was
served at 6O'clOak, after which the fun was
continued until late last night.
